In early April 2014 Aspec unveiled two show cars, one based on the Porsche called PPP430 and a second one using the Lamborghini Gallardo as a basis using a total of 27 pieces made from carbon fiber or Kevlar to create a stylish, modern interpretation of the first Lamborghini V10 model that has recently been succeeded by the stunning Huracán LP610-4.

At the front the Aspec PPL600 shows a new bumper that completely replaces the original Lamborghini one, featuring large air intakes and additional fins … all in a nice clear carbon fiber finish naturally, even the front hood is a replacement piece as the front ‘line’ has been modernized to the looks of both the Aventador and the Huracán … additional carbon fiber fins on two air vents complete the new hood.

On the side we notice a wide air vent just in front of the rear wheels ‘hovering’ above a nice carbon fiber side sill … but looking closer you’ll also see a wider front wheel arch vent that complements the new air outlet behind the rear wheel perfectly … and best of all these are all fully functional, not only for looks.

At the rear a new, deep lower diffuser is mounted with several vertical fins for added stability while the entire rear panel gets a more open feel by using a Sesto Elemento/Veneno style center piece with triangular openings. Under the taillights two carbon fiber vents are used, above these LED lights Aspec mounts a nice ‘duck tail’ wing, note the center part of this rear wing is still adjustable for more down force at speed … again form and function combined together to create an amazing look.

A special wing mounted at the back of the roof is a detail not often seen on Lamborghini Gallardo tuning, but Aspec just had to get this extra touch on the exterior of their PPL600 package while a quad exhaust system is shown on this specific car featuring a smart valve system to allow different air flow for the exhaust fumes …

One other very interesting feature on this Aspec PPL600 are the wheels, these are called Aspec VF60 three-piece forged units and come in large 20-inch size … but I can’t shed the feeling they look very close to the standard wheels on the new Lamborghini Huracán LP610-4 where these are called Giano, Aspec calls them ‘an echo of the Diablo rings design’.

For the inside Aspec turned to Recaro and installed a couple of TSG Alcantara racing seats and a large LCD shows the controls for the Aspec Ideas (Intelligent Dynamic Exhaust Acoustic System) … that’s right, if you drive in the city you are not too pleased with the deep thundering sound of the exhaust you can change it at the touch of a button … switching between Comfort, Sport and Track will change the valve setting in the exhaust system … not only does this control sound, but depending on the position of the throttle the valves can open further automatically … thus increasing not only the sound equilibrium but also performance up to 600hp.
